Common mistakes
She smiled loving at her little brother.She smiled lovingly at her little brother.
loving 是形容词，不能修饰动词 smiled；修饰动词作状语要用副词 lovingly，因此把形容词改成副词后句子才语法正确。
They looked at each other lovely.They looked at each other lovingly.
lovely 是形容词，表示“可爱的、美好的”，不能修饰动词 looked；表示“充满爱意地”作状语要用副词 lovingly。
She hugged lovingly her mother.She hugged her mother lovingly.
英语中及物动词和宾语之间不能插入作方式状语的副词，hug 与 her mother 应紧接；把 lovingly 移到宾语之后才符合英语语序。
